Rezensionen

"[...] Hollender's book, as well as her growing body of work in general, is a serious contribution to the study of piyyut commentary and is sure to serve as a touchstone in what one hopes will be numerous studies that it brings in its wake."Michael Rand in: European Journal of Jewish Studies 2/2009"[...] Hollender's book, as well as her growing body of work in general, is a serious contribution to the study of piyyut commentary and is sure to serve as a touchstone in what one hopes will be numerous studies that it brings in its wake."
